Hi,
Many Python developers have the need for JavaScript at some point or other
so I thought I'd share a link to my project. It's a series of code snippets
intended as a quick read when returning to JavaScript, and many of the
peculiarities of JS are demonstrated. Some fragments of Python are included
for comparison. https://github.com/ReduceRightDave/forgotJS
Have a spiffing day,
Dave

Very handy!  I have been forgetting Javascript at least twice a year
for the last 20 years.  Sadly, the world won't let me forget it
long-term.

Great info, I always make a mistake between == and === when jumping between python and JS.

Thanks guys, good to know it's useful.
Pull requests/other ideas for both the main document and testing routines
are welcome.

Subject: [python-uk] Anvil is looking for a Developer Evangelist in Cambridge
Message-ID: <CAD=T17GhN=-iAgbE6_OSXTPPnXzrHZtVSbwCvEc0vgu+MhPQiw@mail.gmail.com>

Hi all,

My friendly, fast-growing startup is looking for a developer with great
communications skills to get people developing for the web in pure Python.

Anvil is a platform for building full-stack web apps with nothing but
Python (no JS required). If you didn't see us at PyCon UK or EuroPython
this year, you can find a 6.5-minute demo: https://anvil.works#about
<https://anvil.works/#about>

We're looking for a developer evangelist: a developer to help show Anvil to
the world by building, writing and talking. It's rewarding work -
developers love being introduced to Anvil (our booth is always crowded
<https://anvil.works/blog/img/how-many-t-shirts/crowd.jpg> at
conferences!). Plus, there are all the advantages of an early-stage
startup: as our second employee, you'll have a lot of autonomy and huge
impact, and you'll shape how we do all our developer outreach.

Our company culture is supportive (we're humans first, entrepreneurs
second), and we welcome part-time or flexible working. You'd be working
primarily from our stylish* office in Cambridge.
(*Or so we've been told)

You can find the full job ad, and more information about us, at
https://anvil.works/jobs

Subject: [python-uk] Come and work with me at made.com?
Message-ID: <CACFvh9_VHb0Xz55Eyw2pWxk5ifh2J8_bag7hob-zizEoPTLxcw@mail.gmail.com>

Hi All,

I've been doing some quite interesting work for a new employer, Made.com,
for about a year now, and we're hiring, so I hope you'll allow me a brief
jobs email?

What's interesting about the work:  it's not a startup, it's not a django
app, it's not a bank, it's not data science.  It's Python being used to
power a retail/logistics business.  Quite a traditional "enterprise"
software domain, a place where you'd usually see Java or C#, but Made have
committed to use Python for all their supply chain software.

As a result, we're dealing with quite a lot of business complexity, and
we're dealing with it by applying some architecture patterns that are quite
common in the Java/C# world, but (in my admittedly limited experience at
least) still quite rare in the Python world.  DDD / domain modelling,
repository pattern, dependency inversion, ports and adapters, CQRS, event
sourcing, you name it.  The chief architect, Bob, is crazy smart and a
lovely person to boot and is coaching everyone through all of this, and
it's been a great education.

I blogged about it a bit here:
http://www.obeythetestinggoat.com/python-architecture-stuff-do-we-need-more.html

So that's the pitch really:  proper enterprise architecture, in Python 3.7,
with a team that's doing all the right things in terms of TDD, devops,
continuous delivery, and so on.  We have "10% time" aka Friday time once a
fortnight where we can work on spontaneous self-started projects.  The
office is in old st.  Remote and onsite are both possible (although it is
either/or).  you get 30% off the stuff...

Happy to answer any questions!

all the best
HJWP

PS oh yeah, I forgot to say, the IT team is big enough that if you don't
*actually* want to work directly with me, it's quite likely that you'll be
able to avoid it.  this is for the people that already know me ;)

PPS work suggested I mention that they have an exclusive agreement with an
agency already, so they aren't accepting submissions via other agencies.
